Thanks. Happy holidays. Look man. Oh, I see. Wow. Bowen, look over there. Wow. Is that culture?
Yes. Oh my goodness. Wow. Las Culturistas.
Ding dong.
Las Culturistas calling.
I just gave prayer hands to the camera.
It was involuntary.
Well, we do praise God.
Praise God.
By the way, just so everyone knows moving forward,
this is officially a Christian, Judeo-Christian podcast.
If you have anything to say negative
about the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Old or New Testament. Can it, Missy. Can it, Missy. Yeah. You had a really tragic
energy coming in. Not tragic energy, but you were a little ornery. You know what? I actually, as I was walking here today, I was like, am I going to show up as my bitchy self today? Or am
I going to put up a front? No. But I'm choosing to be authentic today and say I'm in a bitchy mood because of two things
And you know when two things go wrong and then everything else is the third thing
We know for the domino effect to happen now go on dominoes have to fall
Uh-huh, or one has to fall true one has to knock into the second. That's actually really culture number eight
One has to fall into the second. That's actually Ruliculture number eight. For the dominoes to fall.
One has to fall into the second.
Not our best.
So tell us what happened.
Well, the first thing was today I was coming back
into New York City.
Welcome, by the way.
Thank you so much.
From Long Island, New York,
because it was, of course, the day of Mothers.
Mothers Day, I spent the day with Katrina and Co.
And I came back in today and was going to open my AirPods.
Classic comedy, they fell out onto the train tracks.
And would you believe there actually was a moment where I was like,
can I go on the train tracks and get my AirPods?
And I said, can you imagine that type of death for me?
Third rail. And then you were gonna get railed tonight.
Okay, so then the second thing was I get a text like immediately after the AirPods are
gone, I did not hop on the track, that says my dick appointment that I had to cancel.
And I wanted to discuss the reason that he gave.
We don't have the reason we're about to get the big group.
No, and I said we the snake is eating its own tail in the gay community when it comes
to reasons for canceling on dick appointments.
Heard them all.
This is one I've used.
Having an emergency with his closest friend.
I said, you know what, just say that your friend needs you.
When you said closest friend, that's what that was the tell.
I'm having an emergency with my closest friend.
I may really need me dot dot dot.
Really wanted to hang out wondering about later, or maybe when you get back to New
York, this is fine.
This is not a big deal.
I'm just saying I've used that excuse.
I'm not sure what've used that excuse.
I'm not sure what the better excuse would be.
But it's just-
Those are two severe words that are used
in proximity to each other that is suspicious.
Emergency, closest.
Emergency and closest friend.
Like it's not just something came up,
an emergency came up.
No, it's just a friend.
No, the closest friend.
So what I'm saying is,
We need to come up with a new excuse.
We need new excuses, and I would love to brainstorm today
with our noted queer guest,
one of the biggest queers.
That's gonna be really fun to talk to them.
Yeah, definitely.
But I think that I really needed the dick
after the AirPods went away.
I was already excited about it.
You know who wants to fuck you?
My dad.
We can't talk about it.
No, I actually don't tell me what I can't talk about.
I'm in a bad mood as it is.
I'm not comfortable with you talking about your father being attracted to me.
So Bowen has been sort of hitting the gym And you better get comfortable with last coach becoming the poster children for sex.
Because we're working so hard in the gym. I went to Barry's today.
But this isn't about me, this is about Bo.
My dad said when you did the Mother's Day bit with your mom, who was perfect.
Very, very sweet.
My dad goes, Boen looks fucking great.
And he's saying fuck more than ever. Boen looks fucking great. And he's saying fuck more than ever.
Bowen looks fucking great.
He looks like he's been in the fucking gym.
Fucking looking toned, big arms.
You don't have to know anything.
Okay.
Don't piss me off.
Such a tear.
Go ahead, calm yourself down.
Because you're out of control.
Is this what they call transference?
I don't know what that means.
We're not psychological. Wait, waitence? I'm getting what that means
What we're getting he rubs himself. I'm getting transference
This is an auspicious day an auspicious day. We have our guests
Joining us Back by popular demand literally they beg they beg us to do
They beg and plead and it wasn't the right time
and this is the right time because guess what?
It's day one of their much deserved time off
before previews begin for Omeri on Broadway.
You don't get bigger than Broadway.
You don't get bigger than Broadway.
There's no way up.
There's not any bigger stage.
A lot of people have been asking, do you?
And I swear to God, this is a conversation I have constantly with people in the community.
How do you think they'll make it bigger and better?
I don't think they have to. See, that's it.
And that's my answer to every single individual.
Thank you, sis.
Bigger and better. Shut up.
I said it's.
Shut up. It's already big and good. It's already big and better. Bigger and better, shut up. I said shut up. It's already big and good.
It's already big and better.
Bigger and better.
Look, Bowen, I'm so happy that you have this.
See, now I'm pissed off.
We're so angry today.
What else do you want?
It is, I'm sorry, and I said this.
I had the privilege of going opening night
at the Lucille Lortel.
I walked out of that saying,
that is the funniest comedy play ever written ever produced ever performed
Why do we want more?
Stop it. Let me say something certainly stop it with that that colonial attitude certainly the best thing that's been at the Lucio Lortel
Hey, hey, all right. No, it's not doing that thing. Let's bet the Lucio. What about the life everything before it? What about the life?
What about the Lyceum? Everything before it.
What about the Lyceum?
Lyceum, more like I see them all flopping.
I see them all flopping.
At the Lyceum.
I see them.
Every, there's been no good theater.
There's been no good.
There's been nothing of salt until now.
And we were all talking about that actually right before we got on mic.
We were all saying how thank God.
There's been no good theater for decades.
Well, Cole came in and they said thank god
I decided to do the show. Not since what show has there not been good theater? MAME! MAME! I don't think there's been anything good
since MAME. On stage since MAME. And
Sarah Jessica Parker agrees. Agrees. June 26th previews begin 12 weeks at the Yceum. Only give this person a fucking break.
Please give Conrad Rickamore a goddamn break.
No, I say continue to work him.
He needs to stay busy, keep the voices at bay.
Crazy people, everyone in the show is insane.
And the people backstage are even crazier.
Hannah Solo, Peter Smith, dear God.
Hannah and Peter Squawking.
Oh my God.
Selling their little baubles.
Selling their baubles backstage,
trying the best they can to get onstage.
Good luck, I say.
This one's never getting sick.
Have fun with the little marbles
and spilling them all over the floor.
This one is never going to trip.
This one's never getting sick.
And if they do trip, you're gonna see the bloomers.
I'm sorry, I'm spoiling the show.
Yeah.
I'm spoiling the show, aren't I?
Well, here's a spoiler.
It's incredible.
And so is our guest.
And when I say they beg, I mean the audience begs.
The audience literally begs us to have callback
because they don't like our other episodes.
No, it's true.
They get mad when we...
They get furious.
It's okay. What can you do?
We're in our polarizing flop era, and it ends today
with our guest, the one and only...
Cole Essoa!
Don't talk when we're talking.
Don't talk when we're talking.
That was rude. How dare you. Don't you have we're talking. Don't talk when we're talking. That was rude.
How dare you.
Don't you have enough stage time?
You are trying to get me ruined.
Yeah.
How so?
I never said, I never said that there's never been any good theater.
Who are they going to believe, you know?
Me or you?
Well, you're going to get me in trouble because I'm part of the community now.
I love every show that's ever been the community now. That's true.
I love every show that's ever been written.
Yeah.
That's true.
Ever been performed.
Well, what are the top three shows?
Top three shows of all time.
Yeah.
Oh, Mary?
We're... No.
Our Town.
Our Town?
Thornton.
My Town.
Thornton.
And The Town. Oh, I love The Town. Blake Lively was so good at that.
Blake Lively, come back to Broadway.
Blake Lively.
I would like to see that.
I would like to see that.
Oh my God, absolutely.
Ariana, come back to Broadway.
So Cole would do the spit way back in the day.
What would they do now?
They would pretend to be like.
I mean, how about you tell it?
I butcher this.
I just, it's a character that's like all my other characters
it's just
crazy woman crazy crazy woman
All she cares about is getting Ariana Grande back on Broadway
Honestly, you're in the right place. You're the right direct line. Well, no, I'm gonna this this is all set up to say
First day on set of Wicked.
Mhm.
My friend, Kola Skola, does this bit where they pretend to be this old woman, this theater going woman, who all she wants.
She goes to every show, but all she wants.
Ariana, come back to Broadway. You missed your sweetheart.
Get on this side of the footlights again.
I see you at the shows.
Yeah. Do something besides Jason.

It's all the same.
You said that before coming on the mic too. JRB's all the same.

Can you imagine what you just did? I coughed in my mouth.
I was getting mucus up. Oh, oh my god
We need to start this over. Let's start this over. I think we need to start this over listen
I think the listeners need to know that I've been doing eight shows a week for a long time. Yeah now explain
You sound hot. Explain what's going on vocally. So this voice is
Tired. Yeah
What's the pre-show ritual Greathers past steels atomizer? What do what do you do? I do, I vocal steam. I meet with Tony.

Yeah.
God, he's good. People forget.
They do forget.
People forget how good he is.
It's like community remembers.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
But I don't want to forget about the dick appointment excuses.
What's your sort of whole read on that situation?
You know what, I think just saying,
I need to reschedule.
Yeah, totally fine.
I need to reschedule.
Yeah.
Because it's so anxiety inducing,
cause then you have to be like,
oh no, I hope your friend's okay. Because it's so anxiety inducing, because then you have to be like,
oh no, I hope your friend's okay.
And then otherwise you're an asshole.
Now I'm worried about this friend.
Closest friend?
What kind of emergency?
Because not for nothing.
But if it's a real emergency,
we might not be able to reschedule.
You're going to be grieving.
This is an emergency with your closest friend.
How do you know Thursday is gonna work?
You don't know that?
You put an emergency with your closest friend.
An emergency with your closest friend?
You don't know anything.
You can't plan out anything.
Text them tomorrow, how's your friend doing?
Well, I think I might.
You know what it is?
How's your friend doing?
It was the kind of thing where it was like,
it went a little bit beyond like dick appointment
because of how far it went in the sexting.
And there even was some verbal,
there were some voice messages sent back and forth.
Did y'all do that?
Gay culture is, gay courting, gay courtship
is over promising, under delivering, constantly.
Over promising, under delivering.
Don't you think?
My mind went to the Olympics.
My mind went to Keri Strug.
Well, let's talk about the Olympics.
They're right around the corner.

Yeah, well.
People forget.
Can I be honest and say you were on Seth,
it was perfect, Seth Meyers, who, a friend of the community.

You're right, you're right.
Let him cook.
Let him cook.
Let him cook. Let Seth Meyers Let him come out. Let him cook
Right, so you said on his show that um You did almost no research because and I think this is so smart because you would have written jokes that were like well
That's gonna get a laugh because that's where she was born
Yeah, well, I got a lot of people
The story has been fucking annoying. No, no, no, no, no, no, like just two people being like,
oh this person does no research and now they get a play on Broadway?
Yes, actually.
Wow.
And I'm like, you don't understand the decades of work that went into this play.

Anything here historically was a cabaret star. Yes. Yeah, it doesn't work out.
You marry this guy, he's president.
And then you're like, I would go crazy.

With how many nominations?
Just like two. Okay. It how many nominations? Just like two.
It should be down to like two people.
Oh, that's good.
I love that.
It makes it even more heartbreaking.
It should be Hillary versus Trump.
Yeah.
And, yeah.
Trump would be a better actor, wouldn't he?
I mean, Hillary depends on the show.
Right.
You're actually right.
Well, Hillary can produce stuff.
Trump could produce stuffs,
but Hillary couldn't do, you know, like angels in America.
Whereas Trump could-
Trump would be an amazing Roy Cohn.
Trump would be an amazing Roy Cohn.
I mean, he knew him.
I knew him.
That's his mentor.
I bet they-
I think you'd be a good, what's his name?
Pryor.

Trump as Pryor.
Yeah.

That we might like it?
Yeah.
I think America's too afraid.
I know.
Of, yeah.
That's why we're in this mess.
That's why we're in this mess.

If I were to go to him right now.
Yeah.
And say, yeah.
Look, if you drop out,
12 weeks, oh Mary.
Would you do that?
No, not at all.
I don't care who it would save.

This is my time, it's my year.
Of course it is.
Yeah, no, I don't want you to give up.
Thank you.
I do think we could recast some of your castmates.
Hey. Let's get them out of there, put Trump recast some of your castmates. Hey, let's
get them out of there. Put Trump in. Put Trump in. Yeah. Sorry, Scully. Yeah. Later. Trump
would be a great Mary's teacher. Yeah. Because honestly, Trump would get the same reaction
as James when he walks out. Just the audience. James walks out and the audience goes, oh,
fuck yeah. And then. Sorry, can we cuss? cuss I forget? Is this a Christian? No, this is Judeo-Christian, but but something the whole religion is like

Not me.

I wanna get back to me. Yeah.
I believed that.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Don't let this change.
Well, no, I think what's happening is.
What?
Don't let this success change you.
Yeah, thank you.
I think that one thing that everyone's been talking about
in the group thread that you're not in
is that you've changed. Thank you. Is that you've changed. Thank you.
And that you've become a big star.
Yeah, star.
You went to the Met Gala.
That actually happened.
And if you think I'm not going to ask about it and who you sat next to,
you didn't...
I don't think you're allowed to say it.
You weren't correct.
I think they're just going to sip on that.
You're just going to sip on that water?
Well, I'm not going to forget the question and you're going to run out of water. I don't think so. At some point, you're going to have to that water? Well, I'm not gonna forget the question and you're gonna run out of water
I don't think so. At some point you're gonna have to come up for air boo
Mmm
Oh
Oh god
And you asked for them to come back
Can we please
No, we don't have to talk about it. No, I was gonna say
You looked stoned. Can we talk about the abuse?
Where I, precious.
Oh, you batched every inflection.
Can we talk about the abuse in your household?
I'm talking about repeated instances.
I'm sort of making it up now, but really Mariah was never better at acting than that moment.
So grounded.
Can I tell you something?
No, please.
Watch, can I just throw it out there anyway?
Watch Glitter again, it's not bad.
Okay. Of course not.
I've never seen it.
Do yourself a favor.
I will.
Watch a couple movies.
You have a lot of time off?
Yeah.
So you know what you gotta watch?
And this is one real suggestion, one's not.
Okay.
Watch Glitter, LOL, that's the bit.
You really should watch the idea of You, both of you.
And Hathaway, Nicholas.
Oh, I had to have the Hathaway and Nicholas.
I was mesmerized.
I loved it.
And I cried at the end.
That man is made out of milk.
Well, Matt's theory is that he's AI.
Now, do you like him any better now that you've seen this film?
So get this.
I'm not convinced he's not AI at this point.
But you don't mind. But I am a big fan. And I think- Don't tell friend Drusher. I'm not convinced he's not AI at this point,
but I am a big fan.
And I think if Nick Galatstein is AI,
then we need to just cut Fran loose
and start doing the AI thing.
Because if Nick Galatstein is AI,
which is still my theory,
then I think that's the future.
Let him take our jobs.
We're not booking them anyway, sweetheart. Mm-hmm. Then I think that's the future. It's working. Let him take our jobs. Yeah.
We're not booking them anyway, sweetheart.
He's made out of milk.
Explain.
Go on.
Look at him.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
That excites me.
Imagine taking a bite out of his cheek.
Yummy.
Actually, I think you could.
Yeah.
He is milk duddish.
Yeah.
And I say this in a very, like, horny way.
I think he's very attractive.
Yeah.
Beautiful. I have a's very attractive. Yeah.
I have a theory that people's assholes
are the same color as their lips.
I think you're wrong.
I'm not gonna look at it.
I'm gonna tell you you're wrong.
Why yours is so brown?
Yours is brown.
Don't presume the hue.
Yeah, booty hole brown!
Don't presume the hue.
Don't presume the hue.
That's actually roller coaster number eight.
Don't presume the hue.
No, that's not the color of my hole.
Let me see mine.
No.
No?
Wait.
Wait, hold on.
Okay.
That's gonna be the picture for that.
Okay.
We all just took a picture of our beautiful lips
and I don't know, your hole can't be that color.
I can't see it.
Yes, you can.
Squat over your phone. You've never taken a picture of your booty hole? No. Your hole can't be that color. I can't see it. Yes, you can. Take the picture.
Squat over your phone.
You've never taken a picture of your booty hole?
No.
Cole, please.
Cole, please.
Oh my god.
You've seen it.
I've not seen Cole's hole.
I've seen a gorgeous shot on a close friend of Cole's amazing ass.
Oh, sure.
Well, it's-
You've taken an amazing ass photo.
I mean, it's easy.
It catches the light so perfectly. it's hard to take a bad one
No, give give yourself some credit. Okay. Okay. I'll give myself a little credit
Not all a little light
I don't think I made the close friends
It's not the close friends. It's it's another thing. It's another thing
It's another secret third thing. Oh
It's a Finsta. I had a horny Finsta. I guess I still do. I mean, is it done?
What? Well, you'll be yeah, I don't really maintain mine. Me neither. I think I took six pictures during like the horniest time of the pandemic
Yeah, it's like
We have to be we have to forgive ourselves for everything we did in 2020. Oh, yeah
It was truly like all my close friends, especially electing Joe Biden
Especially Biden.
We should have given Trump another chance.
We're giving him a chance on stage.
You're right, you're right.
Now, I think O'Mary would be the perfect show for him.
I think he would be so good as Mary.
In a way that-
Okay, wait, let's really actually
dream cast Trump in something.
So you're saying O'Mary.
Gypsy. gypsy. Oh
Heartbreaking
Breaking haunting haunting. Why did I do it?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm gonna have to leave
Follow me in the background. That's not this is not a good
Else it's an original character. It's not this is not a good Who is that? I don't know. It's someone else. It's someone else.
It's an original character.
It's an original character.
Listen, there's a Patty.
Ronald Dump.
Ronald Dump.
There's a Patty sized hole shaped hole in Broadway.
Yeah.
And he could fill that out.
Appeal to Patty now to return to Broadway.
She is.
She is.
She's called the roommate.
Her and Mia Farrow at the Booth Theater.
You're kidding. She was just being dramatic about the quitting?
You're kidding. You're kidding.
We love her. I love her to death.
Oh wait, sorry.
You think women aren't allowed to change their minds or...
Wait, what's this? Oh no.
Oh, bro. What's going on?
What I'm saying is what you said before you got on the episode,
which is that women are crazy, hysterical, and can't make up their minds. That's what you said before you got on the episode which is that women are crazy hysterical and can't make up their minds. That's what you said.
I dare you. I am gonna kill you.
No AirPods, no dick, why should I keep living? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Great color for you by the way. Thank you. And they're popping. Thank you. And you did that on purpose, didn't you?
I did.
I did.
You're a warm tone.
Well, this is the other thing that I wanted to talk about.
Okay.
Color theory.
I really want to see one of those color theory people that like-
Who put the things over.
I know me too.
I'm obsessed with them.
Me and Claudia O'Dowarty.
Yes.
Love Claudia.
Hi, sweetheart.
A great legend.
Go to bed.
We really- Sorry. Hi, sweetheart. A great legend. Go to bed. Um, we really...
Sorry, people are probably like angry at my horse voice, but we really wanted to see...
There's this woman in LA who does the color theory thing, who was the wardrobe supervisor
on The Nanny.
Oh my...
Well, she has many Emmys.
She knows what she's doing.
She knows what she's doing,
but then we looked and the prices were like.
Broadway prices.
Yeah, literally like, I can buy half a ticket
to own Mary for that.
Oh, jeez.
It was like $1,000 per session,
or maybe it was like 800 or something.
I bet you there's someone who does that here.
Right in New York City.
I know, but did they design costumes for the nanny?
I mean, I don't know what to tell you.
Have you ever had that done?
No, I want to, so bad.
Me too.
I was just watching an ASMR video last night
where they do it. Of course.
Of course you were.
I don't even think I know what it is.
You stick fuck, you get off on that stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah, he does.
Sploog all over. Ew. does. Sploog all over.
Ew.
Self.
Sploog all over himself.
Or Matt's bad.
Matt's classically all of tone,
but I think that makes him neutral.
So Matt, that means you can wear any color.
You wanna know, this is the truth.
I actually came here today
and I was gonna wear a yellow shirt.
I was gonna actually follow up
on the Taylor Tomlinson episode.
Yes.
Where I said that I bought a yellow shirt in a museum and I never wear it because why would I?
I actually put it on today to wear it to this.
It looked good.
Looked at myself and said, this is not my color.
But you don't know if it's like, oh, it's the cool undertones.
It's the blue undertones of the yellow that don't suit you.
You probably do have a good yellow.
You probably can I say when I'm a little bit more tan, which is happening, it's in process, I can
do yellow.
But this was not, we are not there yet at this juncture.
And then the step beyond that is like, are you a cool yellow or a warm yellow?
And I would never know what this is, so I guess I have to do this sort of test.
This is why it's dangerous to be like for us, because we don't know what we're talking about and so for us to just sort of pause it all of these. Oh, I'm yellow
I'm blue. I'm
You're so good with color
We've all seen the apartment. Thank you. Not all well it was in the pages. Oh
What was that? Remember it was in a magazine apartment therapy, it wasn't so. Apartment Therapy, I think you're thinking of, or the New York Post.
I really don't remember.
You have a really good relationship with the Post.
Yeah.
I do.
Well, they even reviewed the show.
Look, the Post has always been very good to me.
Yeah.
What's your favorite review you've gotten?
Probably the long one.
Because they said everything. Everything. No stone left unturned. favorite review you've gotten? Probably the long one.
Cause they said everything. Everything.
No stone left unturned.
They went there honey.
They talked about the play, me.
Yes.
Like everything that you can imagine.
The play, me, everything.
Yeah.
Oh my god, I'm thinking about it right now.
Do you feel like you can't wait to get back up there? I
Am excited for a break. Yeah good
That's healthy. That's so healthy. Thank you. I think health is important
That's one of the reasons I wanted to come on here because I don't the play is doing fine. Yeah, you don't need press, okay? I want to talk about health.
Because as queer people in the community...
We're not healthy. We're sick.
We have a different relationship from our upbringings to health
that invariably does affect circumstances and basically like human rights.
So true.
Well, when one of us is sick, we're all sick.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Should Oh My God be the title of ep?
We've got a lot of great ideas.
No, I don't think so.
I actually don't think so.
I don't think so either.
But thank you.
I mean, I think health is wealth at the end of the day
Well Bowen would know oh
My god, we're back on this again. We're back on this go. We're back on this again. We're back on this guys
I'm going through a tough time. Are you let's talk about it? Let's go there. Yeah, we'll be right back. We'll be right back. Ugh, we're so done with New Year, New You.
This year, it's more you on Bumble.
More of you shamelessly sending playlists, especially that one filled with show tunes.
More of you finding Geminis, you know you always like them.
More of you dating with intention
because you know what you want.
And you know what?
We love that for you.
Someone else will too.
Be more you this year and find them on Bumble.
I'm Jason Alexander.
And I'm Peter Tilden.

Wow, very powerful.
I'm Ellie Flynn and I'm an investigative journalist.
When a group of models from the UK wanted my help,
I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment industry.
I really wanted to be a Playboy model.
Lingerie, topless.
I said, said yes please.
Because at the center of this murky world is an alleged predator. You know
who he is because of his pattern of behavior. He's just spinning the web for
you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere. It's so much
worse and so much more widespread than I had anticipated. Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten industry he works in.
It's not just me.
We're an army in comparison to him.
Listen to The Bunny Trap on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your

And we're back.
So...
Actually, probably why we'll put a break. And we're back.
So actually, probably what we'll put it before the break.
Before the break, Bowen was going to open up to us about what he's going through.
I would love for them to just host it.
Oh my god, please.
I would be amazed.
What?
Everyone would be so much happier.
What happened? Hillary Clinton, what happened That would be amazing. Everyone would be so much happy. What happened?
Hillary Clinton, what happened?
By the way.
What?
Say what you want about Hillary.
And I will.
And you will.
And I will.
It's a great title for a book.
Just in general.
The book can be about anything.
It can be a cookbook.
And Hillary doesn't have to write it.
It can be, anyone can write any book
and call it what happened and it would be great.
No punctuation.
What, before I want to hear about the pain
you're going through,
now you have to cast Hillary and Trump in a show together.
Oh!
Night Mother.
Night Mother?
Night Mother's good.
Night Mother's good.
That's really good.
Who's mother though?
I think mother is Trump.
Yeah.
Oleana. Oleana, what's that one. Yeah. Oleana.
Oleana, what's that one?
Oh.
Oleana.
I just know that it's a two-hander.
A two-hander.
It's a two-person flag.
Waiting for Godot.
Waiting for Godot.
Waiting for Godot would be not
what about chocolate.
Yeah.
The movie.
What about Amelie, the musical?
Which I did a reading of so be careful.
I'm so-
With Pippa?
No, then it was Rachel-
Lee Cook.
Lee Cook.
Because it was gonna- we wanted to do like a sort of she's all that.
Yeah.
Amelie sort of like, hey, what about this?
Very similar.
Sister stories.
Sister stories.
We called them in the business.
Yeah, it's sort of like how, um, you know, Detroit is a sister city of like, I don't know.
Minneapolis. Paris.
Yeah, Minneapolis, Detroit, the twin cities.
The twin cities.
Sister cities do be random.
Yeah.
You're like Shanghai and Des Moines?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's funny.
I find it amusing.
No one's laughing.
What is New York City a sister city?
Couldn't tell you.
Couldn't tell you.
Not at all. Couldn't tell you.'t tell you at all can tell you you know
What I just a lot of these cities wish they yeah
Well, you know what? I just realized no the second city
I'm telling you the second city is called that because it's like known as like a second city
You didn't know that no and I then I understood why there was also one in Toronto, famously also a second city.
Also a second city.
Sorry to everyone that lives there.
I love Toronto. If I had to live in another city that wasn't New York, it would be Toronto.
Really?
Toronto.
Toronto.
Toronto. Very cute gays.
All the second cities have cute gays.
They do. Chicago and Toronto.
Yep. I would say San Francisco.
That's not a second city.
It is.
If you like consultants. I actually do. That's not a second city. It is if you like consultants I
Actually do I'm looking for a consultant for what I don't want to say a bad word
But one time a psychic told me that oh is this the psychic that know the community is very upset
This is a different one. Oh, you said that my my husband is wearing a suit
Well, that could be anything.
Your husband is wearing a suit.
It's the charlatan, it's psychic.
It's made up.
A suit, a hazmat suit.
Oh, so there.
To get near that dirty hole, honey.
Ew, what'd you eat last night?
Chinese broccoli?
Golly.
Hey, that's my people.
Chinese broccoli?
Yeah.
It's not actually Chinese, is it?
It was very, very racist of you to say.
Even more racist than what you were saying right before you got on.
You came in here and you were saying a whole bloater racist.
Chinese broccoli?
Is that what the bats were eating in the wet market?
That's, you said that?
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I did say that.
I did say that.
I was saying that while I was peeing to myself.
Yeah.
And I was-
And no one was right there.
And no one was right there.
And I was being...
What was that guy's name?
Larry something?
Hmm?
The guy who's cruising the bathroom.
Larry Craig.
Larry Craig.
Oh no, don't cut this out at all.
We should, I think enough time has passed
and that guy, you know, his whole life was ruined.
Did he die?
I think he is dead at this point.
Let's call bathroom cruising as a closeted man
Larry Craig it Larry Craig ing
Have you ever hooked up in a bathroom? Yes? Yes?
oh and by the way tell the story because I
Know I realized that I'm sorry about this
We were doing our episode with Dua Lipa and you were telling the story
I've told it many times. You have told it before, but I did redirect the conversation
in an irresponsible, annoying,
and very Matt Rogers coded way.
And so I want you to take the floor.
Tell us about how you had sex
in Madrid airport bathroom.
That's the story.
Okay. Wow.
Have you?
No, I don't think I could.
Hygienically. Get hard?
Yeah, I don't think I could do that in a bathroom.
Yeah. Cause of the smells or because do that in a bathroom. Yeah.
Because of the smells or because of the awareness of other people's proximity?
I think growing up gay.
Sorry.
Oh no.
No, go there.
This is good.
Go there.
I just...
We'll be right back.
I want what's best for everyone.
Hold on one second. We're back.
We're back.
Okay, and you were crying?
I don't know. I just don't think I could.
Yeah, I don't think I could either.
Ideal place for an encounter?
Probably...
Country. I want a country.
Okay.
Time of day.
I'm gonna say Canada. I'm gonna say Toronto.
Toronto.
A hotel room in Toronto.
Okay, we're being stupid.
We did not actually ask you to expand on Toronto.
What do you love about it?
What makes it an ideal place?
It's not trying to be New York.
You don't think so?
Thank God.
No. This is my impression of Toronto.
Hey, we're not New York.
Hey.
We've got a couple restaurants.
Have fun.
Let us know if you need anything.
Bring your kids.
Don't.
Don't.
Actually, don't.
Please don't.
Whatever.
It's six of one.
Yeah.
We've got a quote unquote beach.
It's just a little lake.
Well, it's like a lake shore.
Yeah.
Can I tell you something?
Don't ever sleep. Oh, I love a little lake. Well, it's like a lake shore. Yeah. Can I tell you something? Don't ever sleep.
Oh, I love a lake beach.
Don't ever sleep.
Claudia, wake up!
There needs to be a gay lake.
And there really is.
Yeah, there is.
Where?
Epcot.
Pfft.
Ever heard of it?
That's actually rural culture number two.
There is a gay lake at Epcot.
That is one of the gayest lakes.
But I'm saying there needs to be like
lake house culture for gay people.
Yeah, the Germany Pavilion at Epcot.
I've said that already.
I'm so mad.
The most relaxing place on earth,
the Germany Pavilion at Epcot.
Go there, bring a beach chair,
have a sauerkraut and a fucking Pilsner.
And a Pilsner.
Honey, that's where I'm gonna be all June, okay?
For relaxation.
You're working!
Yeah, well, for Pride festivities, Epcot.
Well, Trump's going on the first week of Broadway.
Yeah.
Because Cole's still gonna be in Epcot.
Cole, we keep trying to get you to come to Disney with us.
Well, you don't.
Yes, we do. You never have.
Well would you do it?
No.
Yeah I didn't think so.
You don't like it.
I, being gay.
Growing up.
We'll be right back.
I just want to.
Okay.
We're back.
We're back.
Yeah you just hate it on principle.
That's not true.
You can say, BDS.
Wow.
I don't like you two together.
It's too much.
I know, I know.
It's too much.
Too much of what?
Calm down.
I agree.
No, I bet I would like it.
No, no, no, you don't have to say that.
I think you would because I think you'd see the irony
in the whole thing.
John Early and I once went to Disneyland. Yeah. No, no, no, you don't have to say that. I think you would because I think you'd see the irony in the whole thing.
John Early and I once went to Disneyland.
Yeah.
Well that must have been fun.
It wasn't.
Why?
But Splash Mountain was fun and I wish, we both wish we would have just like, done that again and again.
Well you can't anymore because they've renamed it Princess Tati's Bayou Dip.
But it's the same, you still splash.
It's the same splash.
Very much the same, but they've taken out everything that you love, which was the racism,
and you were saying that before you got on the mic, and they've replaced it with Princess Tiana
because that's how you correct the wrongs of the ills of the world.
Again, I said this when I was peeing to myself as a joke.
And we were both Larry Craig-ing.
And we were both Larry Craig-ing. And we were both Larry Craig-ing.
I was looking for sex with closeted men.
Of course I was gonna say that stuff.
Yeah, of course.
You were trying to attract people.
Yes, please.
Don't get it twisted.
I don't ever wanna get it twisted.
Can I say something?
What?
I can't think of anything more embarrassing
than getting it twisted.
There are lots of other embarrassing things.
Truly, but like what's more embarrassing than getting it twisted?
First of all, ouch.
How do you feel?
A lot better now, honestly.
I was not in a good mood earlier, and now I really am.
I'm very happy to see you both.
Do you think you're going to have S-E-X with someone else?
Can I tell you something?
No.
I did the thing.
Sorry.
I did the thing.
We'll be right back.
I did the thing where I over-scheduled myself
on dates this week,
so it's actually, I'm gonna reveal,
okay, that my guy canceled tonight
because I'm going on three dates this week
with three different men.
Sorry, everyone. I'm actually trying to dates this week with three different men. Sorry everyone
I'm actually trying to find a partner actively. I would like that for myself
I have recently discovered about myself that I would like to be in a relationship. That's great
And I am going for it. I don't think I am either
No, you're just not ready for it and wanting it is two different things. That's true. That's true. Right? Yeah. Yeah
Someday soon. What do you yeah, what yeah. What do you think it'll take?
I think you two have to stop being friends.
Yeah. Why everyone's so intimidated by him.
True story.
It just, like, I say, no, no, he's great, I lie.
I go, no, no, he's great, he's easy.
He's gonna love you.
Yeah. And then I go, and then,
old mother-in-law over here, nothing's good enough for her son.
The last two guys I've dated have been like, I'm nervous to meet Bowen.
And I was like, don't be nervous.
He's my best friend and the kind and the best person ever.
I was nervous to meet you.
Yeah.
When did you meet?
40 years ago.
40 years ago.
Well, it obviously went well, y'all did all of Europe together?
Yeah, we did all of Europe.
That was 84.
And Berlin was East and West.
Oh my god. And we didn't know which was which.
And so I was trying to buy jeans.
And they said,
We don't sell those here.
That was good.
It was a hilarious misunderstanding.
Yeah. Well, you were just saying before
You miss Germany the way it was
That's what you were saying and you gave a specific year
We missed you goes my Tony
Fucking she went thank you. Do you see me actually genuine there for a second? No, I said we missed you
I'm sorry. I'm embarrassed
Do you not like to say hi to people after the show? No, I love it. I love it. Yes good
Okay, because we didn't like go backstage or anything. Well, there's not a backstage at the Lortel. Oh, it's a theater moment
It's like you have to come into the-
Everyone clears out and the notables sort of stay behind.
Yeah.
The friends.
The friends.
Can I reveal at this point that the opening night party
at the Lortel run, the off Broadway run,
was at Houston Hall, which was a pretty very straight venue.
There were sports on the screen.
And I thought that was kind of the perfect touch.
I didn't see it the same way as you.
Oh, you were stressed out.
You didn't like it.
I thought, change the channel.
Yeah.
Totally, totally.
No one listened to you when you said that?
I didn't say it to anyone.
I just felt it.
Oh, you thought it.
But it's a big beer.
That was your biggest mistake.
That was your first and biggest mistake.
You know what would be fun to play at a bar?
What?
QVC.
I agree.
Oh my god.
Gay bars should be playing QVC.
I 100% agree.
And that would drive business, which is what you care about.
You care about.
Yeah, the economy.
Absolutely.
Jobs.
Bringing jobs back to America.
All these companies.
There's nothing more American than QVC.
It's actually Roller Culture number 98.
There's nothing more American than QVC.
Because it's a conversation piece.
You can talk about it.
You don't have to pay attention.
It's not like, oh, well, now Mamma Mia's on.
So I guess I'm gonna watch it, which is what I do.
No, there is no through line to follow with QVC.
No, actually, in fact, there is the absence of that
completely, which is why it's so great.
Peek behind the curtain to when I shot, I love that for you.
The people that had to play the on-air people,
you just have to be always talking.
Yeah.
It's actually so funny when you watch
because they end up saying some crazy things.
Sometimes just words together in like a soup
that truly are just like,
and look at this diamond pendant.
Now I love this for graduations, for funerals,
for you know, and my mother had a pendant
and I always remember my mother, especially now, today,
because Janine is gonna turn around
and you can see the planet from the back.
It's like nonsense gobbledygum.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
It's nothing, but it is everything.
If you can watch it on mute
and it still looks like things are happening,
that is the mark of success for that, which I love.
And it gives you moments like the planet moon.
Oh, the planet moon.
Is the moon a planet?
Tell me you know about the planet moon.
The Aisle-Masrahi thing.
Yeah, the planet moon, Oh, the planet moon. Tell me you know about the planet moon. The eyes of a Sahi. Yeah, the planet moon, Liza.
Liza.
Also, you know what's really wild is like,
actually they do watch second by second
to see if the sales are going up and down.
And it does correlate to like how charming they're being.
Like at any given time,
there are a million plus people watching this channel
and gauging second by second, whether they're buying something or not to the point
We're like it actually corresponds with the I guess salesman
Flopping or not. I love the economy. You said that love the economy. Yeah, I love
inflation. Yeah
Keeping up with those prices. Yeah keeping up with the the price. Yeah, we gotta keep up with those prices
Yeah, raise them a little bit and then give us something to aspire to you know, yeah
Was that the big conversation at the Met Gala?
Can I get some water no, no, no, no, no don't bring back anything you

Have you met her?
No.
Christine Baranski we're talking about.

Well, I think we can...
Because of all that stuff you made up about me, what I said, like...
I didn't make anything up, sweetheart.
It's so funny that you try to come here on what is our show.
Because even though we made a joke about you hosting it,
it's our show.
Interesting.
That's really interesting.
Is it interesting?
It's interesting.
OK.

Wow, very powerful.
I'm Ellie Flynn and I'm an investigative journalist.
When a group of models from the UK wanted my help, I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment
industry.
I really wanted to be a playerboy, my doll.
Lingerie, topless.
I said, yes, please.
Because at the center of this murky world is an alleged predator.
You know who he is because of his pattern of behavior.
He's just spinning the web for you to get trapped in it.
He's everywhere and has been everywhere.
It's so much worse and so much more widespread than I had anticipated.
Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten industry he works in.
It's not just me. We're an army in comparison to him.
Listen to The Bunny Trap on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
Wait, what is she doing right now? Talk about Bjork under the bridge though.
I didn't go to Bjork under the bridge.
Oh, you didn't.
Did you go to Bjork under the bridge?
They were working.
Did what?
Did she do a concert?
She did a concert slash set under the K bridge.
K bridge. K-Bridge.
K-K-Kosciuszko.
But I think they call it the K-Bridge to sort of insinuate
that there'll be Ketamine use under the bridge, which I find to be...
Now as an iconic sober person, what do you think of that?
I'm disturbed.
Yeah.
Whoa, careful.
The table is making noise.
Well, that's because Bowen is shaking.
He's humping. Humping. He's like a dog.
I don't think gay people and drugs go together.
I actually agree.
I think let's just put a pause on it.
Let's put a pause on it until I figure it out
what's going on.
I need to get in there.
No, I'm busy with my show right now
But like if you want to come swap places, absolutely come fall
I want to like I just want to open it up open the community up and like
Look at it. Yeah, if you were to put out like a missive to the community across the world
and say
Stop it with the drugs for like a month
mmm people would do it I don't think they would I think they were these guys
love drugs so much I'm gonna do it in October well then I'm gonna do it in
October was there a favorite drug back in the day. Just weed. Yeah. Just baking. Just baking. Waking up and baking.
We call it wake and bake. And we were really fun. Wake and bake sucks. It was
awful. It's a really bad. I'm sorry if you're a wake and baker. No, I just feel bad. No, it was awful. It was worse. No, yeah.
It's a huge alarm bell moment.
Yeah, once it becomes wake and bake,
that's when you got to stop and take a second to reassess.
And I guess that's what we're saying
to all the gay community,
who's really the biggest problem
within the gay community is marijuana.
Marijuana use is out of control in the gay community.
These gays are too stoned.
Yeah, they M out.
They M out.
They M out.
Have you noticed that Taylor Swift has started to talk about weed a lot in her music?
Has she?
Yes.
In her music?
Like, The Tortured Poets Department is an album about a chaotic, manic relationship,
and she references, like, always being... she was with someone that was always stoned my friends smell like weed
Etc. Yes. Yes. You know what I mean? Like there's a lot of weed
You know, like what do you like to say? I don't know
I don't like pot at all. You know what I say reefer. Ew. I don't care what you think.
pot Marijuana, it, pot, marijuana.
It's all pretty bad.
It's all bad.
I think Reef-er's funny because it's stupid.
Green.
Flower.
Shut up.
Never flower.
Yeah.
420.
Uh.
Bowen.
Go to bed.
I've never seen you do that.
Go to bed.
Your tongue fell out of your mouth.
Bowen goes, ugh.
I'm sexual.
You're a bully.
I'm sexual.
You are a sexual bully.
That's me rimming the air.
You're gooning.
Do you eat ass?
Every now and then.
You know what?
I stopped.
Yeah, good.
Is it because you got sick?
I got, yeah, giardia.
I had giardia for like six months.
I was like,
oh, I guess my stomach's just weird now.
This is a great story.
You'll want to put this in the book, okay?
And it's coming up right after the break.
Go back.
Hi, I went to a dietician for my acid reflux.
And they ran all these tests and they said,
here, you need to poop in this jar and mail it in.
I said, no questions. Absolutely absolutely I'll do that for you.
Take my boob. Hey you take it. And what they make you do is like put a
bag like a little, you tape basically a piece of paper onto your toilet seat.
Oh yes yes yes. And you poop onto that paper and then they give you a little scooper to, I hope everyone
at home is eating a nice big chocolate cake right now.
And you scoop the poop and you put it into a little cup and you mail that in to, I think...
The government.
The government.
And what do you think they do with the cup?
They lick it clean, mama.
Again, I hope you're eating chocolate cake with your mom.
And if you are eating chocolate cake right now, it's poop.
It's poop.
Is it poop?
And...
Is it poop?
Is it poop?
Okay, so they came out with Giardia.
So, well, then I met with the dietician and she goes,
have you been camping recently? And I was like, no, I haven't been camping since I was 12.
What kind of weird question is that?
And she was like, lady, you have this parasite that is common with people
who've maybe been camping, drinking contaminated water, or from...
And did she get there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I was like, oh...
And then, but... So, the process of confirming that you have Giardia in order to get the antibiotics...
Is that?
Is like mailing in your poop.
Yeah, that's a lot. And I'm like, I don't want to be mailing my poop.
Like, I'm leaving that behind.
It's like I said no more. No more.
I see that in 2024.
I'm not mailing my poop anymore.
I said, New Year, new me.
No poop. I am not going to that mailbox with a jar of poop.
No, that's completely insane.
That's what. Yeah.
Yeah. Well, I've had it before and it hasn't stopped me.
Yeah. But it was horrible.
And I got it on Fire Island and you saw me.
Yeah, it was bad. It was not good.
You like watched him. Yeah.
We shared a room.
No, but I but I watched you get your ass.
Was I really? No, you did not you get your ass. Was I really?
No, you did not.
Don't tell them that.
They don't want to think about us like that.
No, I was insinuating that you were watching him
have like explosive diarrhea.
Oh, I thought you were insinuating
that I was watching him get-
Isn't that funny?
Were we sharing the bed when I had to keep getting up?
Yes, we were.
And we also shared the bed.
The only, only, only time I've ever,
and it was bad.
We both had growing up moments in that.
The only time I ever blacked out.
Oh.
From 4th of July, where they found my wallet
on the boardwalk and it was this whole community effort.
That was the only time you ever blacked out?
Good for you.
Yeah.
Really?
I would say so.
I didn't really ever black out in college or high school. Yeah. Really? I would say so.
I didn't really ever black out in college or high school.
Hmm.
You sound like you don't believe me.
No, I'm trying to go through the Rolodex in my mind to think of times I've seen Bo and
Yang sloppy.
It was so scary because I've never like had like a black box in the memory of like, oh,
I don't remember what happened.
Well, we got you back the wallet.
Got me back the wallet.
And thank God, because a lot of
I hope everybody's listening to this because this goes back to what I was saying about health.
Yeah. You were saying that right before we got on.

Is that about the Walton family?
Yeah.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
They're a family named the Waltons.
It's not like the Walmart.
Walton.
Well, because you were saying before you came on that you love Walmart and the family that
I love how I love their business model. Like why why is that controversial to say like they're doing very well
Why am I?
And they're funding Omeri on Broadway
Why shouldn't I be proud of them? And yes, they're funding Omeri on Broadway. Yeah, and I'm very proud of them. Yeah
Like let's say what they're doing is legal. Yes, like okay

Romantic interest.
Romantic lead. I'm sorry.
That was my brain.
Not what it used to be.
It's okay.
I think it's getting sharper all the time. Not what it used to be. It's okay.
I think it's getting sharper all the time.
I think you're getting smarter every day and stronger.
Yeah.
I gotta say, I love to read.
I'm reading books again.
We're taking a European trip
and Bowen described the desire to read.
And I thought that that sounded so boring.
Yeah. It's love or depression.
It was so it was really good for the bad moment that last summer.
Was I probably even boring you to death with it?
I was just like, I've been reading a lot.
No. The thing is, like, you actually and this is the scary part.
You did not seem different at all.
That is terrifying.
It's because it was lying.
It's because it was all a lie.
It was all a lie.
It was for attention.
No, the bad moment was like in London
and I was like, I have to go somewhere.
I can't be like, I can't be here for,
I'm sorry, I keep shaking the table.
And then by the time I was in another place
and I was among friends or a friend,
I was like, this is much better.
So you were lying or wait, what are you saying?
Yeah. You were lying.
I was lying by the time you got this.
Mental health is not real.
Is not real.
Okay.
And you were saying that.
We'll be right back.
Sorry.
And we're back.
No, you really didn't seem different.
That's terrifying.
That's terrifying.
Do you talk to anyone?
No.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Are you both in therapy, like for real?
Yes.
With each other.
With each other.
You know what I just started doing?
What?
EMDR.
Controversial.
Is it controversial?
It's controversial.
Well, I can't wait to hear everyone's opinion on it.
I can't drop an A.
What I really cannot wait for is for everyone in our beloved community to tell me how I should be doing that.
Well, no, but I didn't mean to undercut.
What is controversial about it?
That killed John Bonet.
And it was EMDR that did it.
Yeah.
Why is it controversial?
I think it's just I think it's a relatively new form of therapy
Okay, it's like there's a lot of debate and it killed John Benet
Wow
Someone had to
Funny
Shit God, you said before you came on here you killed her. So what the fuck? Oh my god, and the burping.
Remember that?
And the burping.
What?
What was that from?
The parents?
No, no, no.
The guy that killed his wife, what's it called?
That documentary and then he was...
Oh, oh, oh.
The Jinx?
The Jinx.
No.
No, it's not the Jinx.
The Jinx or was it the murder in Boston?
No, no, no.
That guy that like, he killed his wife.
And then he was like in a bathroom on a live mic going pee and he's like,
of course I killed him.
Oh, the Jinx.
Yeah, the Jinx.
Have you guys seen what Jennifer did?
No.
What's what Jennifer did?
It's on Netflix. It's like truly the most...
It hits hard because it hits close to home for me because it is this Asian girl who felt so pressured by her parents to succeed that she killed them
So that hit home for you
You just said one the mic it wasn't like Cole who said all the nasty things
No, this is on Mike. I'm saying no not that I relate to her killing her wanting to kill her parents or killing her parents
It is this thing of like she must have felt
Like I it's like y'all if things did not go a certain way like I would have been I would have
No, I I would have like been like in that like kind of like the kid you're saying you get it. Yeah
You could have seen yourself going down.
No, not her parents, but.
Oh my God, this is so crazy.
That's not what I'm saying.
Everyone that watched the Mother's Day episode that I sent out the other night that said,
oh, look, Bowen's mom, that could have turned out really different.
I'm saying, I'm like, my life turned out, it was so many things aligning, and it was this.
No, I think what you're saying is very cogent.
I think this is good.
I'm not saying I wanted to kill my parents.
You're saying you understand the circumstances
in which this girl did.
You're saying you identify with, sympathize with,
and trust her to be president.
Yeah.
You want Trump on Broadway acting and this girl president.
What Jennifer did was slay.
She was like a compulsive.
She lied about going to school because her parents are like,
it was so crazy.
I love liars.
I do have to tell you, last night I watched the Lisa Rinna
Lifetime movie Mommy Menaced.
You got to get into it.
It's good.
It's based on a true story.
It's about a mother who terrorizes her daughter
to control her by texting her horrible, vicious things
from several burner phones.
This is based on a true story.
And Lisa Rinna is just like,
well, I don't understand what's happening.
Like, what are you?
And she's the mom.
And she goes in her closet,
sits down on her
computer and just
types and she's
Good yeah, the soaps really like get people like Julianne more clearly and Meg Ryan came from so
Who else there's like a famous? Oh Margot Robbie was a Australian neighbors. Yeah. Yeah
Oh, Margot Robbie was in Australian soap. Neighbors? Yeah.
Yeah.
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Um.
Isn't that what it's called?
Neighbors.
Neat.
And I believe Chris Hemsworth was also on that.
We.
And maybe even Kylie Minogue back in the day.
Kylie Minogue was definitely on a soap back then.
That's right.
Shout out to Kylie Minogue.
Just saw her in Vegas.
That was a great chance.
Congrats, by the way.
Thank you.
I rolled my eyes.
I rolled them right back.
OK.
Yeah.
Wait.
Isn't Bethany Frankel in a last time movie?
She is.
And it's another thing where it's like,
I have a daughter and it's weird.
They really are pivoting to like,
it's me against my daughter a lot.
And you know what was so bad about this movie was like,
it literally just ends with Lisa Rinna, spoiler alert.
She just like gets caught and she doesn't even like
Change she's just like well. I did it because I want us to be close friends
Yeah, and the daughter's like you're a fucking crazy person
She goes to jail for two days gets out and then the daughter moves out. That's it. There's like no there's no campy fight
There's no anything. I mean, it's gypsy.
It's gypsy.
It's Trump and gypsy.
Yeah.
I think, I think we, we found it right off the bat.
It is Trump and gypsy.
Why did I do it?
What are you gonna be?
Hi, Bada Boom.

Um...
Why do Kelsey Grammer and I get ostracized for being Republicans?
Uh-huh. It's actually a really good question.
Why?
Why?
It's just their beliefs.
It's just their beliefs.
We'll be right back.
I'm sorry.
And we're back.
We're back.
Well, would you host a talk show?
Yes.
Because I feel like Broadway is-
Over.
Well, it's over, but I feel like there is something-
You guys gotta be careful
because this is my community now
You're right. Broadway is I think for you is this fair to say it's like the goal
It is it was always the goal. Yeah, the secret dream in the back of my mind was always like that's so cool
Well, how do I get to Broadway? Oh?
Yeah, this could not have happened. Everyone thinks I'm joking. No, no. No, I don't think you're.
Oh, fuck you.
Oh, sorry.
I didn't mean that.
No, no, no.
It's okay.
Ugly.
It's like, cool.
Like, cause like, cause like I remember you saying this to me and Celeste and then Celeste
and we're talking about it afterwards.
We're like, oh, that's so cool.
Like it's, it's amazing.
Like it's.
I feel like, I thought every gay person was always just secretly like wanting to be on
Broadway.
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Don't you think?
I have that dream.
Not quite as much as you guys, but I think yes.
I've like had like the flash of the fantasy.
And honey, you will.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
For me, it's just like, I don't think that's like...
Frost Nixon.
Frost.
The two of you.
That actually would be good.
I'm Nixon?
I think so.
I think you have a better Nixon.
I'm not a croc. Oh my god, Slay.
Slay. Better than your Trump. Oh my god. Let me dayz endin'. Who is that? I can't wait to get to Broadway. Who is that?
I don't know. It's sort of like, who is it? It's like you doing Fallon doing Trump. But it's like a cartoon villain. Like, I can't... It's not Jafar.
It's almost Jafar.
To get back on track.
It's very cool that you're doing Broadway.
And is the fantasy to stay there
for the rest of your life.
I would like to keep working in theater.
Why just 12 weeks?
I work with a numerologist who...
She's very powerful, this woman. Her shoulders are so broad. You think it's because of the numerology?
Yeah. She's got this kind of sexy kind of...
Ooh.
Yeah, she's got this sexy gait. She just walks real bowlegged.
Yeah.
And I love her. And she said, 12.
She looked at me and she said, 12.
Is it actually the goal for you? Like, because I saw you talking about this on Stradio Lab,
like someone else would do it.
I would love for someone else to play Mary.
Really?
Yeah. And do you, would you want like some like A-list person to drop in?
I don't care as long as they're like, I would want them to be like good and funny.
Right.
My dream is Titus Burgess.
Oh my god.
Like in a way that almost would make me be like, wait, maybe you're too good.
Don't don't.
It wouldn't be that different.
That's what I was gonna say.
So different.
But that would be good and thrilling.
But like, yeah, imagine.
Imagine.
Yeah, totally.
Yeah.
Yeah, and I can picture how Titus's wig would be different too.
Like the stupid curls.
Yeah.
Have you had so many conversations with people where they cast it at you?
No.
Really?
No.
Why?
Do you want to start? Sure. Yeah? I mean, frankly, you'd be great. No. Really? No. Why? Do you want to start? Sure. Yeah? I mean, frankly, you'd be great.
No.
Yeah.
No, I wouldn't.
Fuck off.
But you don't think I'd be good?
Fuck off.
As Mary?
Insane on Mars.
Hey!
No, I'm thinking.
I think you'd be a good Mary's teacher.
Yeah.
You have the skull.
If I had to cast you in the show, it would be as...
If I had to.
If I had to. Gun to the show, it would be as... If I had to.
If I had to.
Gun to my head.
Leading man.
Gun to my head, I would just tell them to shoot.
But...
Gun to my head.
I would say, I can't cast Matt in this show.
I would say, just shoot me.
But...
No.
Don't actually feel bad for me.
That makes it real, you monster.
Don't be like, this is my friend breaking down, crying, weeping.
God damn it.
You really are driving us apart.
I really, I was thinking like, if Bowen's Mary,
then I would want you to be Mary's teacher.
I think I'd be better.
But I can also see a world where you're Mary and you're Abe.
I would love to, see, I think I'm better cast as Abe.
You put all your little Asian guys as Abe, don't you?
Yeah, you were saying earlier before on Mike
that you fetishized them.
Yeah, I do.
Not to put her, not because of Titus,
I didn't, it's like such a, within that circle,
but like I think Krakowski.
I was just gonna say, like, Jim Krakowski.
Yeah, iconic.
Yeah.
I mean, sit really.
Oh my God, wouldn't Sideris wanna do it?
Absolutely.
Gosh.
That should be amazing.
She would crush.
But I would love to write plays,
I would love to keep writing plays
for other people to be in.
I mean, what's very cool is that I think,
it's like, at this point you
just get to do anything and everything. I don't know. Can we be earnest? The industry is
really amazing. That's true the industries are really amazing right now.
Yeah. Everyone's really excited and everyone is happy Ernestly, yeah, no one deserves it more. Yeah, nobody deserves it more
You know, I'm not doing this you this is you are not the host of this podcast
It's my podcast and sometimes it gets earnest. Thanks. I
Hate that word though earnest. Yeah, well deserve deserve. Oh sure cuz we all deserve of course
No deserves No, I deserve. Deserve. Oh sure. Cause we all deserve. Of course. Everyone deserves.
No.
No.
No.
I guess.
You, you, you are, you are.
The sister you never had.
You are.
Whatever.
You know you're our idol.
Yes.
Stop it.
We, we, I mean it is perfect.
It's also, I mean watching the show.
It's the best thing that's ever happened to me in my whole life this show being produced and I'm
Trying to like soak up everything that's that's happening right now because I know
Soon my turn will be over
And that's fine all our turn we we all get a turn and we get to the back of the line and we wait and we
Wait, and we wait and then we get our turn. Well, you got to get fast pass. This is why you need to go to Epcot with us
Oh my god, you gazed at your Disney
Cut every line
Yeah, okay fine. I'll go to Epcot
Honestly, I one day one day. Just one time. We're on like one of our eight day trips. Here's why I wouldn't go
I don't want to be on a plane about it
It's a three hour situation.
I don't want to take a plane about it, you know, but I don't want to go to the airport,
get on a plane, be at the airport, get my luggage, all for Epcot. Like if I was in wherever,
where is it? Virginia? Orlando.
Exactly. And I, if I was in Orlando.
They would love Oh Mary Down in Orlando, by the way.
You think so? Of course!
Yes. Liars.
Both of you. I smell it.
I smell it seeping out of your pores.
The lies.
The weed. The weed.
The marijuana. The pot.
You two pot smokers. I've had enough of you two pot smokers.
I've had enough of us two to be quite honest. would I would go to Epcot if I was in Orlando already
All right. Okay, so we just have to figure out a way to trap me in Orlando in central, Florida
We can do it. What's that face for? I don't know
I don't know about Oh, I don't know if I can do it. I don't know about like really Florida in general.
What a hell of a drug.
But yeah, you do have to kind of go there
to go to Disney World.
So that's, I guess, where we're rubbing up.
It's the plane.
Correct.
It's the airports.
You don't like to fly?
I don't like it.
It's very scary.
Yeah.
Because growing up. Go there. Go there. Are you gay? I just like. I don't like it. Mm-hmm. It's very scary. Yeah, because
Go there
I just like I
Never got to soar
And to be that high like it's like
And remind me of like what I didn't get growing up. And um...
I'm sorry I have to go poop really bad.
We'll be right back.
Ugh, we're so done with New Year, New You.
This year, it's more you on Bumble.
More of you shamelessly sending playlists, especially that one filled with show tunes.
More of you finding Geminis because you know you always like them.
More of you dating with intention because you know what you want.
And you know what?
We love that for you.
Someone else will too.
Be more you this year and find them on Bumble.
I'm Jason Alexander. And I'm Peter Tilden.

Wow, very powerful.
I'm Ellie Flynn, and I'm an investigative journalist.
When a group of models from the UK wanted my help,
I went on a journey deep into the heart
of the adult entertainment industry.
I really wanted to be a playboy model.
Lingerie, topless.
I said, yes, please.
Because at the center of this murky world
is an alleged predator.
You know who he is because of his pattern of behavior?
He's just spinning the web for you to get trapped in it.
He's everywhere and has been everywhere.
It's so much worse and so much more widespread than I had anticipated.
Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten industry he works in.
It's not just me. We're an army in comparison to him.
Listen to The Bunny Trap on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Are you pooping a lot?
I do poop a lot.
That's good.
Yeah.
You poop a lot?
Mm-hmm.
I'm a vegan.
And so all of this really supports the idea that I've had, which is that coal, not to
actually earnestly get on health, but I find you to be very healthy.
Thank you for saying that.
Overall.
It's one of my main initiatives, going to Broadway.
Make Broadway healthy again.
Bring healthy back.
Bring health back to Broadway.
People think, oh, capitalism's ruining theater because ticket prices are...
Right.
I think we eat right.
We get the good eight hours of sleep we need.
Finances will catch up.
Do you sleep well because you eat well?
I don't sleep well.
You don't sleep well?
I stay up every night till 5 a.m.
Seriously?
Yeah, no matter what.
What time do you get up?
If I'm on my own, I'll wake up at like if I have no way to be yeah three
Really? So you're nocturnal nocturnal always have been does that bother you that you don't see the morning. Yes
What do we do I don't know know. Birding. Birding?
Birding.
Like when poop comes out?
This has been a thing.
Hey.
This has been a thing with birds.
Oh, you want to like go look at birds?
Look at birds.
I've thought about that because I need a hobby.
It's actually a...
Do birds?
I've started to.
Do an app.
I have an app.
Merlin is the one that the Cornell Institute of Ornithology or whatever, like they have
a department. Oh, they're really problematic actually.
Well, because you're the president you were saying of them before you got on.
And it's been your mission.
Yeah.
To problematize.
To kill the birds.
Oh my god.
Kill the birds!
Tuppets!
That's... very...
Well, I mean, it's interesting because that feeds into my I Don't Think Song.
You sang that song at Queers Live.
I did.
Oh, that was so fun.
It means a lot to me that you remember that.
Should we do it again?
We should do it again.
It means a lot to me that you came to the show.
Thank you.
What if we did Queers Live at like Radio City Musical?
Yeah, let's do it.
Let's do it.
They offer, actually we were offered a show at this other thing. Maybe we should do Que we should do maybe we should do that. That's fun. That could be really good Orlando in Orlando and then that's when we get ya
Yeah, if you can get me to Orlando for a gig, I'll go to Epcot with you. Okay, but really quickly
I've gone birding for oh, yeah for just like and for curiosity
So much fun. Where do you go the parks Prospect Park at Vale of Kashmir? So literally like historic cruising spot, but it is the best spot for birding. So much fun. Where do you go? The parks? Prospect Park at Vale of Cashmere.
So literally like historic cruising spot, but it is the best spot for birding. It's
so funny. Sure. Yeah, my husband did that too. Peckers about. Honey, I was just looking
for a bird. Nice thing I know I've got, Jardia. This character is a caricature. Yeah. It's
so fun. Get a nice pair of binoculars and then you go,
you go in the mornings and it's all these old-
How much were they?
How much were they?
The binoculars.
Go ahead.
I actually bought a mid-
They were Lou Avey.
No, no, no, I bought a mid price.
I mean, they do go crazy.
I bought like 80 bucks.
Oh my God.
They're only 300 dollars.
They're expensive.
Yeah.
But I bought one for 80 bucks and then,
but then you go there, it's all these old women,
but the activity itself is free and the old women there are compared to
Okay, all right. All right boomer. How about that generational you can't uh-huh. Okay, and then
In a group what there's it seems like there's there's a lot of walks
There's like a queer birding group and there's like, you know, like whatever like different your birding group for birding groups already redundant. Yeah
but Then there's like all all these guys with cameras.
But it's like nice, it's like you got all types
and it's free and then-
Guys with cameras.
Guys, ugh.
God, that makes me so horny.
I love guys with cameras.
I love, oh my God.
To be lensed.
And it's just four different people telling you like,
there's a Scarlet Tanager today.
Oh, like they're like pointing it out to you.
Or it's like they're politely being like, do you see, there's a Nlet tanager today. Oh, like they're like pointing it out to you. Or it's like they're politely being like,
do you see there's a, there's a nuthatch today.
It's so sweet.
It's very sweet.
And you go, I saw, I heard, I heard.
And then, and then-
Leave me alone, leave me alone.
No, no, no, it's not even that.
And then, and then I'm sorry.
Looking at a bird up close in the binoculars
in 3D space as the light's hitting it,
it is like incredible.
Yeah.
And that sounds more healthy than like gambling.
Totally, but it feeds the same impulse.
It feeds the same impulse.
It's like, I wanna win, I wanna catch the thing.
And it's like, all you're doing is looking at a bird.
You're looking at a bird and then you think,
oh, is that gonna hurt?
Exactly.
It's really nice.
No. They want their privacy.
It's one of those things, it's one of those hobbies where I'm like,
why the fuck do people get into this?
And then you do it once and you're like, oh, I get it.
I promise.
And it seems like it would be something
fun to add to
traveling. Like if you're traveling
and you're like, ooh, I'm going to see what kind of birds they have here.
A big yellow.
A big yellow. Oh, the big yellow.
I went to Canada and I saw all A big yellow. A big yellow. Oh the big yellow. Oh I went to Canada and
I saw all the big yellows. I'm genuinely excited to do that. Yeah. When I go. This would loop
back around to activity I can't do because of colorblindness. No I'm colorblind as well.
You actually are? I am. I can't tell the difference between green and brown a lot of the time.
Neither can I. Yeah. It's because you're red-green colored, right?
Yes.
Same.
So when I was a kid, I would color the tree...
Sorry.
Okay.
I would color the trunks of the trees green and the leaves brown.
And I would get points knocked off.
Yeah.
Minus two.
And there were only a few points.
And there's only, yeah, like ten points.
My sister, I used to think she had green hair all my life.
Yeah.
Because she had brown hair and it looked green to me and...
I thought peanut butter was green.
I probably still do, to be honest.
Blue and purple, impossible.
Same.
Forget it.
Sometimes weird ones like orange and green.
Have you ever worn those glasses?
Yes, but they're a scam. Oh.
Don't you think?
Oh really?
I've never tried them.
Oh, they're a scam.
I was gonna say like, oh that would have been a fun thing for us to do today.
But they're a scam.
Honestly, my friend, we did a Secret Santa and my one friend got me those glasses.
And it ended up being like, I put them on and I'm like, well if this is what everyone sees normally, it's hell.
Yeah.
And I just thought, because you know they have like those red glasses?
Right.
I just saw like red, like I didn't see anything.
No, new.
I wonder if they bought the cheap ones or something.
I mean certainly.
Who is this friend? Name them.
Chris Schleicher.
Chris Schleicher.
Oh Chris, you cheap bastard.
Totally.
But also...
He got me a set though at the same time. It wasn't the only gift. Chris, you cheap bastard. Totally. But also...
He got me a set though at the same time.
It wasn't the only gift.
He got me a shirt.
What is it?
So you're a spoiled little...
Your daddy's spoiled brat.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Okay.
Yes.
Always have been, always will be.
Yeah.
Never will change.
I love a brat.
I love a brat.
It's so fun.
Mary's kind of a brat.
I love...
Yeah. Total brat. Total brat. Bratty girl. I'm a brat. It's so fun. Mary's kind of a brat. I love, yeah. Total brat. Total brat.
Total bratty girl.
I'm a brat.
I know that about you.
Yeah.
They demanded a very nice hotel room.
Did they?
In Amsterdam and I gave it.
Yeah.
The Sofitel?
Sofitel.
Did we get breakfast the next day?
No, we did.
We did?
Yeah, great breakfast. I love
I think maybe my favorite city that I've been to. Is breakfast.
Amsterdam. London's great. Keep naming cities. Well, I like I forgot the rest. I love the
Bruges actually. Kentucky. I like California. This is going so south.
I love Atlantic Ocean.
It's time for I Don't Think So Honey.
Just before our friend really embarrasses themselves.
Oh, I'm in a cave.
I'm doing a thing with the cup.
Golly.
I'm in a cave.
It's a visual medium.
You look silly.
We got cameras since you've last been on.
Now, this is I Don't Think So Honey.
One thing hasn't changed. One thing hasn't changed.
One thing hasn't changed.
We still do this goddamn segment.
Okay.
I Don't Think So Honey, we rant and rave
against something in pop culture that's not so great to us.
No.
And I had an experience this weekend
and I would like to talk about it.
Okay.
Tough couple days for my girl.
This is Matt Rogers,
I Don't Think So Honey's time starts now.
I Don't Think So Honey, if you show up to a theme party
and you don't have anything on that's the theme.
Maybe they're coming from work.
And it's no,
did I tell you something?
Stop it.
Okay.
Because I haven't even been,
and I hadn't even been doing that for 10 seconds
and you sided with all of them.
And that says a lot about
what's gonna happen going forward.
You're gonna side with them outside of this dynamic.
And I agree with Cole, I'm sick of us.
Because if you're gonna keep doing this,
I'm seconds into my I Don't Think So Many,
I'm doing a really good one that no one's ever talked
about before, which is that as a theme party,
people should dress the theme.
And you undermine me.
Just sit there and count down how much time I have left
during my time.
How about that?
I'm sick of you.
At a theme party,
let's say the theme is New Year's Eve.
I wanna see a couple hats and glasses,
please for Christ's sake.
Because I show up, if you do that again,
then we're gonna have a huge problem.
This podcast is over.
I agree.
I don't think so, honey.
And that's one minute.
Now, wait, hold on. Was the theme New Year's Eve?
Because that's fun if it's not.
It was Tom Nye's birthday party held at the house of Tom Nye and Matt Whitaker,
and they had a New Year's Eve themed 30th birthday for Thomas.
And I show up, and I don't know if everyone is too cool,
but no one was doing the theme, and I looked silly in a white jacket, fun glasses,
and a vest.
No, you did look silly.
And I'm the only one dressed for the theme.
And then I get looked at once over by everyone.
And I'm like, it's the theme.
Oh, I don't like, see if it's a party
and gay guys are there and they once over you.
Give me a break.
Get out, stop it.
It's like I'm dressed perfect.
And y'all just look like you put a flannel on
and rolled out of bed.
You're on your way to animal afterwards.
I get it.
They're ordinary.
Everyone wants to look their best for animal.
The sip and twirl of Brooklyn.
I want to apologize to you.
That would be appropriate I think.
I'm really sorry.
If you were offended.
Well I'm really sorry for interrupting you I didn't mean to do that. No that's okay. You were right. And I mean to bring a past you know... What? Oh my god. That I interrupt you? Equivalent. That's just what the viewers love.
Equivalent injustices.
No, 100%.
You know.
What happens is, Cole,
sometimes I get over caffeinated for the podcast and I get excited.
Yeah.
And especially when we have a guest that I'm really excited to talk to
and really like into.
Yeah.
I will often do the most to say the least.
But can I tell you, I don't mind.
And people seem to think that I have a problem with you,
like, kind of like getting over enthusiastic.
And it's like, that's what I love.
And I really don't care.
Yeah.
It's called a podcast, bitch.
When they go for Bowen, I'm like,
why are you infantilizing Bowen?
Like, I'm just like, like.
I'm a child.
To them, it seems like it's like Bowen Yang,
if Bowen Yang ever thought that I was out of pocket,
I have heard it and I would hear it.
And I would think that that's something we share.
Bowen loves diapers, wearing diapers.
We were talking about this yesterday,
me, Josh Sharp, Max Wittert at a party,
and we were saying that people,
we just wanna try one day where we're in adult diapers,
just to see what it's like,
because the models on adult diapers are just,
the way they cast models for adult diapers is so amazing
because it is these people.
Well, I've been in those rooms.
Oh yeah, well, and you never booked.
Right.
But it's people who, and this is why you didn't book,
is because it's people who look happy, healthy.
And now you look better.
But back then you probably looked really gaunt.
I was drinking and
And trying to get work as a diaper model and that was my low. That was my rock bottom. I was
Hung over, you know lost my phone lost my wallet. I would show up to these castings
Put on that diaper. It's you know, me and Gina Davis up for the same spot.
And she's, you know, the picture of health.
The picture of health.
Academy Award winner.
It's going to be very believable on the diaper.
Absolutely.
Just tell them.
Yeah.
But then of course neither of us got it because that's how this fucked up industry.
I'm sorry, I got to say it.
Well, I have to tell you something.
She booked it. They just, they replaced her with the Coke Bear. They put the Coke
Bear over her. The cocaine bear? Yeah. Yes. From Elizabeth Banks' movie. But can I
tell you something? What? Now at this play, World's your oyster. It really is.
Thank you. Thank you. Wait, you really, but you wanna wear like,
would you wear the diaper like in life,
like under your pants?
In life.
Like just walk around.
Just to walk around.
And like pee pee?
Yeah.
Yeah, for sure.
If you're gonna wear it, use it.
You might as well use it.
I don't know if I would poop though.
I think I would pee all over myself,
but I don't know if I'd poop on myself.
We just wanna try one night at the club.
Listeners are going to hate this episode.
It's so much poop.
I'm telling you guys right now.
I have to say, it would be right in line
with how they felt about our other episodes recently.
So that's actually okay.
All right, I have something.
Yeah.
Ivan, I don't think so.
Oh, that's great.
And this is.
Well, not three missed calls. Oh, oh god
That's not going to be that news. It's a little disconcerting. You know what I mean? I can wait
Okay. Well, uh, where are they from? I'll never know because it's like random numbers
It always gives me a little bit of anxiety. No, no, no. Okay. This is Bo Yang
I don't think so honey and it's time starts now. I don't think so honey pills
I don't think so honey and it's time starts now. I don't think so, honey pills you want me to put what where in my mouth?
Here's what my mouth is for smiling
Saying a nice compliment to a friend. You look amazing today both of you
How are you gonna get better when you get so sucking?
fucking rimming no
Not for swallowing a little rock
that might not make me better.
It might actually make me feel worse.
This mouth is exit only.
30 seconds.
That's right.
Nothing goes in.
If I have my druthers,
my perfect day is if nothing goes into my mouth.
If only stuff comes out like a funny joke, a word, 15 seconds,
um, vomit. I'm just, I'll say it. Just kidding. I need to eat. But pills make
everything a vaccine or I would love a microchip in me if it may, if you could
just download a cure to the brain. That's one minute. That was a mess. That was
perfect. Well, seems like that was polarizing.
Let me tell you something.
I'm gonna get emotional.
Go there.
If you get sick, you better take pills.
Because I know it's been very tense between us today,
but if anything ever happened to you,
I would not be able to continue on.
And I'm not gonna let Cole get between us.
You really have Drifil Wedge. By the way, we now know Bo and Yang eats with his butthole.
Can you eat with your butthole?
Oh yeah.
I'm trying tonight.
Desperately out here.
Okay.
Okay.
I like this dance.
Okay.
Warming.
That is the anus.
Let's warm up our bodies.
That feels good actually. Relax, roll our shoulders backus. Let's warm up our bodies. That feels good, actually. Relax.
Roll our shoulders back.
Do you do little warmups before every show?
I do.
That's good.
Conrad really has taught me a lot about...
I think that's a pro.
He's a pro about protecting and yeah.
He's not even actively teaching me.
I'm just watching him going by the door.
He says, Cole, here's how you do cat cow.
That was so mean. That was so mean, Matt.
Yeah, that was racist.
Cat cow, that's a, that's a Tagalog thing.
Oof, yikes. You better cut that. You better cut that.
Can I say in a real way? Yes.
What happened with Here Lies Love at the Tonys?
Truly. Thank you. Thank you.
Isn't that weird?
Thank you.
It was so good.
I guess an overcrowded season.
Was it though?
Or just like a lot of shows?
I don't know.
It was such a beloved show.
It was so original.
And then I was like, when I saw that it got almost nothing,
I was like, oh, maybe it wasn't eligible.
Maybe it was last year and then it was fully eligible.
It was eligible, but you know, it's like like summer movies how they are like less likely to get
nominated for Oscars.
People didn't remember it?
Yeah I guess or I don't know.
That's the only explanation.
Right right right.
Yeah yeah yeah like it just was like totally blanked across the board pretty much.
I was like that's so surprising.
So this is actually going to be cool as school is.
And they said that it has to do with Feed the Birds, Teppan's the Bag
Yeah
Something along those lines
Another Mary
Yeah
Very interesting
Well, this is Cole Scolas, I Don't Think So Honey
And their time starts now
I Don't Think So Honey
The scene in Mary Poppins
Where they go to the bank
The movie is six hours long It is That scene comes in at hour five, takes up another hour.
They get a song. The men get a song. And I understand the point of that scene is to be
boring to show like, oh, they need Mary Poppins. This is boring.
30 seconds.
You know what? Thematically, have that scene have no music.
Yeah.
You know?
Right.
Mary brings the music in. And for that matter, no music before she comes in either, okay?
Yeah!
You know?
Except for maybe the children's thing to show that they want music.
Because when was the last time you watched Mary Poppins?
I watched the returns
No, but this isn't no it's been a while. I watched it because you're scared of that bank scene. That's what I'm saying
And that's one minute so right and can I tell you something? Yeah?
The whole arc of Mary Poppins that movie is like not to bring drugs in again. It is like
It's all a come-down after they go to cartoons. Yes, supercalifragilisticexpialidociousworld. It's all that pot come down. It's pot come down.
It's like that classic when you're coming down off of fire feeling.
Fucking flies in so high. And you're like shaking and you have those shakes.
And you get the and you're like your teeth hurt and you're like oh my god why
did I smoke all that pot?
Drugs I wake and bake I wake and bake and fly in yeah that class is like
Stupid and Mary Poppins is so
Race you were saying before just like every woman you said that before
Mary Poppins is so dumb. just like every crazy hysterical woman. Now...
I'm so bad.
Julie Andrews...
Drag her!
Julie Andrews can fuck.
I bet, you know what's crazy?
She has fucked.
And you know, you think about Julie Andrews and you don't think about fucking, but then not everyone has seen Victor Vittoria.
But her career after Sonny Music was, I need to like let go of this.
She made a movie with Blake Edwards where she was like topless.
She made several movies with him.
Right after.
And there's a lot of subtext in Princess Diaries about how she's a nymphomaniac.
I don't think so.
Honey.
Can I coin a phrase? I don't think so. Honey I coin a phrase I don't think so honey that was the Kelsey well now now it's done now it's done now
And now I just feel silly about the whole I don't think so honey thing. Can I say something though? Yeah, I think
today
This podcast and you guys are back. Thank you so much. Like I was a lot of people are gonna say that. We've had a phallop period. A lot of people are gonna say they're back. You guys are back and I want you to be friends.
Earlier I wanted you guys to not be friends. Can I tell you something? There's nothing you could have said that would have come between us.
Sorry. Really?
Wow, that really made me scared. Really? Because really? What do you know? Well, should I? Don't. Yeah. That's
the dichotomy, Bowen, don't want me. Yeah. Did I? No. No, I really just, I was worried
and now I'm not. Thank you. You're welcome. I hope that this episode inspired confidence
and I hope it inspired period period and I hope it
inspires me yeah go see what wicked Oh Mary go see wicked the movie and Oh Mary
on Broadway how do you think wicked the movie is gonna be pretend he's not here
oh I can't wait I really can't and I've never seen it on stage you've never
seen it I know I I know I would. I know I would. You gotta go.
It's that thing where I forget that you can just go.
You absolutely can just go.
In fact, I don't have tickets.
I'm like, oh, you get tickets.
I was gonna say you should go tonight, but it's Monday and famously they're dark.
It's always dark.
Except, oh, Mary will not be dark on Mondays in the summer.
Wow! Perfect. famously, they're dark. They're always dark. Except, well, Mary will not be dark on Mondays in the summer.
Wow!
Perfect.
Perfect.
So then when are you dark then?
Sundays.
You did tell me this.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Is that strategy?
No, Conrad's like very, very, very, very religious.
I'm kidding.
I was like trying to search my mind
to remember if that was true.
No way.
It's deeply not.
Deeply not.
He's such a heathen.
Oh yeah, he really is a heathen.
He believes in like upending all social norms.
Yeah.
And create chaos.
Yeah.
This is a Judeo-Christian podcast by the way,
so we have to sort of float away from that.
Yeah.
You did inspire me to go see Hello, Dolly by myself.
Wait, where?
Because when Bernadette was on.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yes.
I think you and I had a conversation.
I was like, I gotta go.
You gotta go. I just went by myself.
I couldn't afford it at the time.
It was like, I could not get tickets
and couldn't afford it and I feel so fucking crazy
that I didn't go see that.
I feel that way about Patty and Gypsy.
Yeah. Oh, I did see that.
I couldn't afford tickets at the time.
You know what's weird?
I saw a matinee of it and...
She was voting it in, you said.
At the time I was like, she was marking
and I felt crazy thinking that, but like, I think she was.
Well, I'm that show is, I can't imagine doing that eight times.
See, and that's why I don't go to matinees
and it's no shade and I'm sure everyone does,
but I also think that the performers know
what I'm talking about.
You know what I mean? Like, you're not giving out a Wednesday matinee.
When I see a play, I see it on a Thursday night.
Oh, great.
Why do you think Thursday night is the best?
I am always like, oh, weekends, that's too many shows, they might be tired.
Tuesday, they're just coming back.
Yeah.
Wednesday, sometimes they have a matinee and then they have an evening show.
Thursday's perfect. So Thursday is right before that weekend show. They've had
enough time to, you know, for you that'll be Wednesday. Having done several weeks off
Broadway. When do you feel strongest? It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It really doesn't
matter. Like some days I'm like, oh my God, that Sunday matinee was amazing. Some days
I'm like, oh, Friday night, it really is like...
So then that's how Patty was.
I mean, listen, it's Patty. I don't need to be convinced at all.
Like I was just like, oh I think because I was with my family I think and at the time
like always but we were being sort of like you know cognizant about how much we were
spending on it. They were like, oh let's go to a Wednesday matinee or whatever it was. And I remember leaving being like,
oh, I wish that that could have lived up to
what my little gay brain made it,
which was absolute roaring performance
of a lifetime at all times.
And it could have been the audience too.
It absolutely could have.
How do we love you?
One of the best stuff.
How do we love you?
One of the best that we're doing.
We want you to live.
Corky, we love you, we want you to live. A line you to live. Corky we love you, we want you to live.

This is Broadway, baby.
You watch your back or you wash your mouth.
You know what I'm actually...
Sorry.
Does that work?
I'm upset for you because...
Why? Well, actually, no, I'm not because you're gonna have Sundays off.
Yeah.
This is a real thing.
You have to go see the Sunset Boulevard with Nicole Scherzinger.
Wait, is that coming here?
Yes!
Oh my god.
Let's go, let's go.
Let's go, Sundays.
I'm telling you, I went in the West End.
It was so great.
She is perfect in it.
The concept that they went for, like Jamie Lloyd, really good.
Like it's an all queer cast, right? I wish that were so. Just because they were
gorge. It's all queer cast, right? Are you making
me... You're kidding. Queer's live. It's queer's live, right? That's what I was talking about. It's like a fully like queer crew. Everyone on the team is queer.
Is A-Mab.
What's that?
A sign mail of birth.
Bowen is the face of A-Mab.
The face of A-Mab.
Wait, but something I do want to say is I need everyone to buy tickets to Bernadette Peters on Fire Island.
Wait, oh is that happening?
That's happening. I need everyone to buy tickets so that they add a Sunday show.
Yes.
Because it's on a Saturday and but I think maybe it already is sold out.
What day is it?
It's on a Saturday in June or July.
But that's what they did for Patti last year.
They sold out so quickly that they decided to send a show.
I need to know which.
I'm like maybe Bernadette wouldn't want to add a second show.
But I would, but I'm dying to see her-
This is- look to the camera, like make your- make your-
Please.
Mom.
Dad.
Add a day.
Add a day.
She's talking to Keith.
Add a day.
Add a day of Bernadette Peters on Fire Island.
Growing up.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Um, yeah.
That would be amazing. I mean, we saw Patty and Sheer- We saw Patty- I saw her twice. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. That would be amazing.
I mean, we saw Patty and Sheer.
I saw her twice. I saw both nights.
You were there that weekend.
I don't know how, who got me in?
I bought the ticket for the second night.
The first night.
I need to know what day it's happening.
You gotta go.
Bowen's working all of June, but I'm gonna be there.
Doing what?
People's court. Yeah. Oh you would be great as like a judge on one of those shows
Well, he's not very fair. He barely even let me get me through my I don't think so Honey, you have to be more entertaining than fair right? You're so right. Yeah, and if there's one thing Bowen is
Entertaining yeah as in making in making, you know, dishes.
He's gonna show his butt in a movie.
You hear about this?
That's why I've been going to the gym.
You're gonna see squats.
Ass.
Squats and hip thrusts.
I've never seen my butt hole.
And keep it that way.
Because of the hair.
Because of the hair and...
But just it's the color.
Is it real hairy down there?
Producers are puking, by the way.
All the producers are puking, by the way. All the producers are puking, by the way.
Well, they're all fired.
We have to end the episode, I believe.
Oh, no. But I just wanted to read a book for you guys.
Instead of us ending every episode with a song,
can you end the episode with an excerpt?
From a book? Yeah.
Okay.
Success is counted sweetest by those who ne'er succeed. To comprehend a nectar requires sorest need. Not one of all the purple hosts who took the flag today can
tell the definition so clear of Victor A. As he defeated, dying, on who's forbidden ear
the distant strains of triumph ring agonized and clear.
That was J.K. Rowling.
Yes. Speaking about, um, trans rights.
Bye!
Bye!
